Several European and North American car factories are at risk of being closed or sold this year as automobile brands struggle with overcapacity and price competition, research and advisory firm Gartner said in a report on Thursday.

According to a Reuters article published on January 16, 2025, Gartner, a research and consulting firm, predicts that car manufacturing plants in Europe and North America will face closures due to a combination of factors including the shift towards electric vehicles (EVs), overcapacity, and declining demand for traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. The report highlights that the automotive industry is undergoing a significant transformation with the rise of EVs, leading to a mismatch between production capabilities and market needs. This situation is exacerbated by economic pressures, supply chain disruptions, and the need for substantial investments in new technology and infrastructure to support EV production. Gartner suggests that automakers will need to adapt quickly to these changes or risk significant financial losses and operational shutdowns.
